Managing kids' classes, adult workshops, and private lessons. Seasonal enrollment fluctuations. On top of all that, Acuity Scheduling charges $33/month ($396/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median art teacher earns $30,000/year. Software at $396/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.
